Thank you for the beautiful Spring inspiration, Lucy. I used to draw a lot as a teenager and now, at a certain vintage, I’m trying my hand at painting with oils or acrylic. Thanks to your posts, I feel as though I have you as a teacher walking me through the basic steps. While I LOVE the softness of watercolor and the beautiful results of “wet into wet”, I prefer to avoid the cost of framing so I use either of the two above-mentioned mediums. Thank you once again, Lucy! Your decorating is beautifully executed as well!
